Not even Sam the Eagle.<BR/><BR/>Not one role from Robert Redford. Personally, I loved him as Sundance and as Johnny Hooker and as Roy Hobbs, but maybe most bloggers are too young (there were a lot of recent movies on the lists).<BR/><BR/>Nothing from the Marx Brothers, either. But I'm not that surprised.<BR/><BR/>I thought maybe we'd see some other celebrities such as Meryl Streep or Sally Field, but I don't remember seeing either.<BR/><BR/>I also forgot Dennis Hopper's villainous role in Speed. He made a great bad guy. Oh, and Agent Smith in The Matrix. Great villain.<BR/><BR/>There are just too many to mention them all. What's funny is how many lists had serious overlap.PJDhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05028687955957107957noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8014482.post-33128804826274592942008-07-08T22:21:00.000-07:002008-07-08T22:21:00.000-07:00Wow, thanks all y'all for commenting!Aerin, thanks...Wow, thanks all y'all for commenting!<BR/><BR/>Aerin, thanks for playing here. The Goblin King, yeah, and The Birdcage guy, and Gandalf no doubt. But I think Madmartigan was only so good because Willow was so lame. Val Kilmer had some great roles (Iceman, Nick Rivers), but Willow... ?<BR/><BR/>WW, why am I not surprised you have a thing for the bad boys? LOL. Rickman as Snape is a very good one.<BR/><BR/>Robin, your secret is safe here.PJDhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05028687955957107957noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8014482.post-18975701676780889852008-07-08T21:35:00.000-07:002008-07-08T21:35:00.000-07:00I love your list!
